3.Check-in
requirement: all participating athletes shall carry all mandatory equipment by
the race rules and regulations and pass through the mandatory equipment check
before entering the starting area. Check-in will be suspended at 02:50 July 15,
2018.

Every participating
athlete shall drop off and pick up the transfer bags of equipment/gear in
accordance with the rules and regulations. Valuables should not be stored in
the bag (such as mobile phones, official ID/ certificates, cash, credit cards,
keys, mobile devices, etc). Upon one’s return to the finish line whether from
DNF or after completing the race, runners can retrieve their stored items at
the gear check point. If you do not return to the finish line within the race
cut-off time to collect your stored gear, you can contact the Organizing
Committee the next day to receive it. If you do not arrange to pick up your bag
within that following day, the Organizing Committee will dispose of it.

1.Every athlete will receive three race number
bibs (a big one and two small ones). The big race number bib including timing
chip shall not be folded to avoid damaging the timing chip. The race number bib
including timing chip shall be attached at the most prominent part of your body
with no blocking from anything else during the whole race. The two small race
number bibs, attached to the two transfer bags, shall be the only proof for
dropping off and picking up your transfer bags.

2.The race number bib is the athlete’s
identity. On the back of the race number bibs, athletes shall fill in the
required information which will be used for emergencies.

3.The race number bib shall not be lent to
others, otherwise any accident happened shall be the original race number bib
holder’s full responsibility.

1.All athletes shall use the timing chip
provided by the Organizing Committee (the timing chip is attached on the back
of the race number bib). Athletes who fail to carry the timing chip during the
race will have no timing-chip race result.

2.Athletes who carry two or more than two
timing chips shall be disqualified and have race records cancelled.

3.The race will record the chip time starting
from athletes’ stepping on the timing blanket at the starting point, and
jumping shall be avoided in order to record the time. The other timing points
are located at Lotus Treasure(CP1), Observation Deck(CP2), TaiZhan Gorge(upward
route)(CP3a), Sister Lake(CP4), TaiZhan Gorge(downward route)(CP3b), Hot
Valley(CP5), Ranch at 4460m(CP6), Rubber Mountain(CP7), Gexi Village(CP8). Runners
must pass through and receive confirmation that their time has been recorded at
each timing point. Skipping a checkpoint or not having one’s time recorded at
any one of the timing checkpoints will disqualify the concerned runner and
invalidate one’s results.

At the start/finish
point and all checkpoints on the racing track, medical aid stations are set up.
At the start/finish point, Observation Deck, TaiZhan Gorge and Rubber Mountain,
four mobile medical ambulances are standing by for providing medical service
for athletes. During the race every athlete shall do the running according to
his/her ability and physical conditions. Athletes who are mentally and
physically exhausted shall withdraw the race immediately to avoid accidents.

During the
competition, if a runner is judged by the medical staff as unfit to continue,
he/she must strictly accept and abide by the doctor's suggestion and cooperate
with the referee to complete the DNF registration process.

In order to guarantee
the safety of participating athletes, cut-off time is set at each checkpoint. Runners
subjected to a cut-off time must immediately retire from the race and not continue
onwards. Runners who are subjected to a cut-off time must register at the
nearest aid station and take the aid vehicle arranged by the Organizing
Committee to return to the race finish line.

Runners who choose to
not continue onward (due to poor condition, one’s own decision to retire,
injury or otherwise) in the race or are subjected to a cut-off time shall
retire from the race immediately and walk to the nearest checkpoint and wait
for the aid vehicles.

There will be no aid
vehicles at Sister Lake(CP4), Hot Valley(CP5) and Ranch at 4460m(CP6). If
runners retire from the three race sections, they shall walk to TaiZhan Gorge(upward
route)(CP3a), TaiZhan Gorge(downward route)(CP3b) and Rubber Mountain(CP7) to
take the aid vehicles.
